00:00 I'm a manager, right?
00:00 This is where the lines get a bit blurry for me.
00:02 I don't, am I allowed to talk about a man?
00:04 Like having a really positive impact on me?
00:06 (audience laughing)
00:08 At an event for women?
00:09 You never know.
00:13 You know what, just to be safe,
00:14 let me thank his mum first, Jill Dickens.
00:17 (audience laughing)
00:20 Thank you for giving birth to Jonathan.
00:23 Woo!
00:24 Jonathan is the example,
00:26 but I actually have many men in my life
00:28 who I love and who love me,
00:28 in the spirit of this morning
00:30 and in fear of bras being burned,
00:32 I'm gonna thank their mothers and not them.
00:36 So along with Jill,
00:38 I would like to thank Minerva Martin,
00:40 Rosemary Konecki and Rosalind Russell, to name a few.
00:43 Thank you to them for raising good men
00:45 who do not think that a woman's power diminishes their own.
00:49 That's a (beep) vibe.
00:50 (audience applauding)
